Greentech Lead America: Tervita Corporation, a North
American environmental and energy services company, has won a contract to treat
Chesapeake Energy’s produced and tophole drilling water in its Utica shale production
in Ohio, to help Chesapeake Energy efficiently continue its Aqua Renew
program by recycling water in its operations.
Tervita will provide Chesapeake Energy with a water
treatment facility, in Carroll County, Ohio with an option for mobile water treatment
technology. Using its Hybrid Water Recycling Technology, Tervita can remove

and well pad rain water.
In addition to these services to Chesapeake Energy,
Tervita can provide hardness removal, well site sludge and ponds treatment, if

one of the major players in the Utica by recycling and reusing a resource as
vital as water,” said Phil Vogel, president, Tervita U.S. “Tervita’s
water treatment capabilities and technologies, paired with our integrated
service offerings, are invaluable to our customers as they continue to put more
effort into responsible and sustainable resource development.”
